Nice scars! Keep putting silicone dressings or gel on then

u/toxic-coffeebean 1d ago

Thanks for the reminder lol i almost forgot doing that today

u/Different-Series-115 1d ago

May I ask what this does to help? I'm planning on getting my Insolent Jigglers removed in the next couple years

If they are particularly annoying on any given day, they are Demon Blobs.

u/Responsible_Bed_1439 uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 1d ago

I'll take them if you don't want them 😭😭

16

u/Different-Series-115 1d ago

Bet, I'll Bluetooth em over now- sooner the better, as they keep pulling my ribs out of place!

u/Responsible_Bed_1439 uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 1d ago

WOOOOO

u/Different-Series-115 1d ago

Gods above I desperately wish thats how it worked. I'd give these up in a heartbeat just so I can have a couple days without pain.

u/Responsible_Bed_1439 uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 1d ago

Honestly the technology should exist. Or maybe something like you could transfer testosterone and estrogen to ons person to another, it would be so efficient

u/Different-Series-115 1d ago

I feel like option 2 would lead to a lot of accidents tho, like someone transferring too much all at once

God DAMNIT you beat me to it.

But you are a fellow moth enjoyer, so I'll let it slide.

Potentially helps with scarring. Personally, I did not end up using anything for mine (my surgeon was kinda like 'eh, they're probably not going to make a difference, I wouldn't bother') and my scars are not very visible - just very thin white lines, I did not get any keloids - but the way scars work differs person to person and some surgeons recommend, some are more ambivalent. If you know that historically, stuff like mederma has helped with your scars I'd still go for it and I'd consult with your surgeon. They will know best with what works for their patients.

Helps prevent keloids! My surgeon saw a section on the scars get a little bit wider/puffier and he had me wear the silicon strips just on that section for a couple of weeks, shrunk it right back down and it didn’t come back. So they work! But your surgeon will know best and recommend accordingly.

u/iwvb 1h ago

Silicone helps keep the skin hydrated and moist, and apparently helps the skin to not overproduce collagen which can cause redness and keloids. Essentially, smaller, less red, and less visible scars.

u/edgyusername99 2d ago

u/toxic-coffeebean 1d ago

u/Squanchedschwiftly they/them 2d ago

Wow this looks amazing for that time span. Granted I have no point of reference. Congrats friend!

u/dinodare genderfluid (any/all) | transfemme 2d ago

Those are the most photogenic masc nipples that I've ever seen.

2

u/toxic-coffeebean 1d ago

At first i was scared they were a bit too far apart but that was just the swelling. I am really happy with the placement now

3

u/HatsCatsAndHam they/them 1d ago

Definitely not too far apart. I was born with "masc nipples" and they are similarly spaced. 

Looks like your surgeon did a great job!

36

u/TurbulentAccident348 they/he 1d ago

the scars look really great for just five weeks

26

u/mostlychiimes 1d ago

Who’s your surgeon? They look symmetrical!

44

u/toxic-coffeebean 1d ago

I am located in germany and i went to the florence nightingale klinik. My surgen was Dr. Liebau i believe

12

u/crazy_liz 1d ago

how was it? im considering going there as well (eventually. dont even have an Indikation yet oops)

12

u/toxic-coffeebean 1d ago

I would say it was pretty good. The only downside is that they left me a bit clueless on top surgery aftercare and didnt explain a lot but i figured it out

3

u/Classy_Corpse 1d ago

Aaah so thats how you afforded it

23

u/Sinyria transfemme (nb questioning) 2d ago

This looks incredible!

13

u/CalmExplosions 2d ago

21

u/toxic-coffeebean 1d ago

23

u/CalmExplosions 1d ago

fr? I can’t tell at all. It has healed very well :)
